This forum is too hostile. From “rules” being enforced that aren’t actually rules, to closing perfectly reasonable threads because the moderator didn’t like the topic (but obviously the participants did) the forum is not being moderated in the spirit of Bobs post about the kind of forum he...

Recently it’s been asserted that those who use microwaves “can’t cook. full stop”. I think this is silly and to prove it I’m going to share a gourmet recipe I’ve developed. It’s easy and produces a better steak than you get at a steakhouse! 1. Sear the steaks in very high heat just to get...

Greetings-- Decided to start this thread because I've reached the point of viability and am gonna pursue this until it becomes unviable or I realize I'm insane.  Part of me thinks this is a little insane (well, typical me insane-- go far out there with different priorities than everyone else...
